Kilsaran Precast provides hollowcore in a range of thickness, from 150mm to 500mm. As the name implies, hollowcore has a series of hollow cores within the cross section that results in a lightweight product. This, along wiht the prestressed tensile reinforcement, allows for long clear spans to be acheived.
